Hi Mark,
sorry about this having such an effect on your social life, As an extremly sensitive to dairy person myself, my advice is to try dates that don't involve dinner, I did coffee houses for awhile, you know herbal tea, depending on where you live there are some vegan options, even starbucks has vegan stuff, the 8 grain role, and the molassis cookie(watch out for the high fat thing) and like a plauge, those shops are everywhere. Another option is japanese food, they are inclined to use less dairy, there are safe sushi options, and that can be a really fun date. try to suggest places that are safe, or eat at a restaurant your thinking of trying, a few days before the date, to check for hidden dairy. I was a waitress for years, and if you explain to most of them that you really need to know if there is any dairy involved in the dish, most will be cool about it. I was always willing to scamper back in the kitchen and ask questions when it was my job. good luck, and hopefully you can figure out something that works, Ibs doesn't have to interfere with your having a good time.
